Asphalt emulsion sealer can be used to sealcoat asphalt surfaces in all 50 of the United States. The alternative, coal tar sealer, is banned in a few areas due to environmental concerns. Asphalt emulsion sealer can achieve a similar quality with the proper additives.
Check the laws before purchase: coal tar sealer delivers a better product, and it will last, but again, many areas ban it. These areas require asphalt emulsion or latex sealer. Due to the poor performance of latex sealers and the higher price, asphalt emulsion sealers are the next best thing to coal tar.
This product can be applied with an AK Spray System, with a sealcoating squeegee, or a brush. The options provide asphalt maintenance companies with options on how they utilize their labor.
Spray systems are the most common choice with this emulsion sealer. Each spray delivers an even coating to the asphalt. Plus, emulsion sealers can dry quickly in sunlight or with the proper additives, so clients can have their lots back faster.
Totes of asphalt emulsion sealer are economical to ship. They're self-contained units, so shipping and loading are simple. Asphalt companies may decide to simply put a tote straight on a trailer to go to work too.

Temperatures must be 55 degrees or warmer for 3 hours after application for it to dry properly. Cure times will be longer in cooler conditions. The hotter it is, the faster the water evaporates from the sealer and the dry time can be as fast as 30 minutes. Try not to apply if hotter than 105°F.
Ideally sealer should dry for a couple of hours before it rains. It may need more time if it's very cloudy and humid.
There is no need for two coats, but if you're doing two coats, do them a week apart so the sealer has time to cure completely.
Asphalt is like a sponge which can only absorb so much sealer. Thicker isn't better if it doesn't get absorbed. We recommend between 25-30% dilution to get good even coverage at maximum efficiency.
The best way to do this is with a drum mixer that you attach to a drill. It's faster and more thorough than using a broomstick or other long-handled implement. We have one available here: Drum Mixer.
The cause of this is over-agitating the sealer. Only recirculate your sealer for 2-3 minutes max at the beginning of the day and maybe for a minute at the beginning of each job.
You get this when the sealer is too thick and the pump cannot create a prime to circulate the sealer. Dilute it properly to achieve 20 to 30% water dilution.
Use a dipstick to check the level of your sealer at the end of the day and the next time you use your system, just in case of water evaporation (if the levels are different, add enough water to regain the previous sealer level).
Another possible reason could involve the system's ball valve. On the output part of the pump, there's a ball valve that allows you to redirect the sealer to the top of the tank or to the spray gun. If that ball valve is constantly or permanently broken to the spray gun, you wouldn't get recirculation.
No matter what time of year it is, you must protect against freezing temperatures. This is true of storing asphalt sealer for the day or the season. Otherwise, you will end up with a ruined product that is useless to you. Make sure your sealant storage is 45º to 50º F whether it’s the end of the day or the end of the season.
It's best to always have a bucket of soap and water handy. If there are stains, try an orange based hand cleaner available at any auto parts store. Apply to the overspray and let it work in for several minutes before removing with soapy water. You ...

It comes down to your weight and convenience. Totes weigh a grand total of about 3,000 lbs. As it sits for periods of a week or longer, the sediment and the clay in the sealer will settle to the bottom leaving a thick sludge at the bottom of the tote...
